Many Croatian families have been impacted by communism. Some have suffered immensely and many have paid with their lives.

The experiences of these Croatian families, who suffered as a result of Communism must be memorialized!

Please contribute to help build The Memorial to the Victims of Communism in Ottawa. Our goal is to collect at least $25,000 which we will donate as a Croatian community, in order to place a panel bearing the Croatian name on the memorial.

Donations will be accepted until December 15, 2017 by the Croatian parishes in Toronto, Mississauga, Norval, Oakville, Hamilton and Kitchener!

Over 100 million people have perished as a result of Communist tyranny since the creation of the first Communist regime in Russia in 1917. Canada has been a land of refuge to immigrants from Communist countries searching for peace, freedom and democracy. Today, 8 million Canadians are descendants of someone who fled or was forced to leave a Communist regime for a variety of reasons. We are seeking your help to honour the victims and survivors and ensure they have a permanent place in our nation’s consciousness and memory. To do this we need your personal stories and your financial support to build the Memorial to the Victims of Communism. More info onwww.tributetoliberty.ca.
